Default RIP Iron Addict - A very sad day.
I noticed Iron Addicts article is in 1st place for most read articles.

It's with a heavy heart that I inform you that Wesley, aka Iron Addict, passed away on Saturday.

ironaddicts.com is closed until further notice and there's a thread over on IM.

Real sad and awful day for a few people in this forum - IntenseMuscle.com

I'm sure some of ye knew this great man.

I believe Wesley was 47 years old. Far too young.

The age sounds correct. I had just received his book a month or two ago.

His voice will be missed. I had a great deal of respect for Wesley. He was one of the few men who spoke with common sense, and embraced the importance of strength and muscle. I hope in some way he realizes how many lives he touched and improved.

Iron Addict also inspired me to grow balls and start my own forum. I respected his integrity, and how he didn't allow e-stats phoneys or trolls on his forum. I modeled this forum after Iron Addict's words. His spirit will live on here.
